I found out the wireless has to be off during Dante controller is launched otherwise remote unit (iDR) cannot be accessed. Once patching is done and DVS is running, recording software open and DVS status is connected, wifi can be enabled and has no further effect to Dante. Maybe I’m wrong in my observations, but so far there is nothing against that.
